The City of Timmins would like to advise the public that work on the Crawford St./Ferguson Rd. watermain extension will be begin Monday, May 16 until August, 2023. The project will provide reliable drinking water and fire flows for all businesses and private residences east of Crawford St.

Currently, a single line supplies water to 1,180 water services and fire hydrants to the eastern limits of the City's distribution system. When this main is compromised, flow in the area is limited. The installation of 1,275m of new watermain will provide new services for the properties adjacent to the new main and a new fire hydrant for fire suppression.

Work will be done in small sections with minor lane reductions around the work area. Traffic controls will be in place and drivers are asked to slow down when proceeding through the work zone. The City does not anticipate any disruption to water service while the new line is being installed.

We thank you for your patience and cooperation while we complete this necessary work.
